Yes, it's sometimes difficult to find the right colour. My walls are all white, as I have a lot of colourful pictures hanging on them, this way I can do colour changes without having to redecorate the walls.Have a happy Easter! Happy PPF, hugs, Valerie

Yes I have strong relationships with color as a whole. I don't live in a white house, to put it that way.In home decorating there is other things to consider than in art. As I used to tell a friend of mine, remember it's only the dead fish that goes with the stream. 7 years to decide is really good considerations I'd say. Love your bunny.

I can understand your thoughts about finding the right colour. Ours is a neutral colour as I don't think I could ever pin one down. I change cushions and hang my paintings on the walls and change them at times, so, really, I think you've done so well getting to your decision.All your ladies are delightful, I especially admire Kelly with her earrings... so nice. Cheerio now and have a lovely Easter :D)

Scrolled up and down looking for a favourite lady, couldn't choose, the ladies are all fun. I see they all have large teeth and cool clothes. Are they meeting for lunch today?Haha! Seven years is nothing in Decorating-land. I won't embarrass myself by giving you details here but will send them in an email! And funny how when we do eventually redecorate or hem the curtains or whatever, we really wonder, wonder, wonder why on earth we didn't do it earlier.Also could you give me the option of hiding the thumbnails on your sidebar? You have the best chosen set ever, I am always being distracted by them!Have a great Easter weekend.

Nice little piece about color today. I think color is one of the world's gifts free to all of us. It is amazing how it can make us feel and react. I also love your bunnies. Life has been a little crazy and I haven't been by for a bit but its nice to be back. Spring!!!! Happy weekend and Easter too. Hugs-Erika

I'm especially loving your bunnies today! Oh but the ladies are so fun too!!Interesting post about colors and renewal. It IS hard to pick and choose a new color hoping it is the shade you pictured. Happy PPF and have a super weekend!

I like seeing most of your ladies smiling again :-) That is a long time to decide for a colour! I'm glad you had that epiphany :-) There are a lot of colours I like, but yellow, orange and turquoise do it for me every single time. I just get happy when I'm surrounded by them. Now that spring's here I'm looking forward to painting some spare rooms we still had to renovate. I did 2 walls a few days ago and I can't believe the difference it makes!

I love your bunnies art, Sherrie. The teal color is presently my favorite, but not for walls. The color in my house comes from accessories and furniture and paintings, etc. I love the pale pale yellowish white walls I have because it brings so much light into the rooms. Some small rooms I have painted colors though. Happy Easter.

Color can be a challenge. But you seem to love and embrace it!!! I have seen white walls with black framed art and white walls with white framed art...it all comes down to the person who lives with it as to choice. I always base my decor on what I enjoy not the phase of the day. Great post!!!

Oh, how I can relate to this color problem! Several years ago we thought we were going to sell our house so we painted everything in neutral colors (blah!) and it's still like that. I think I've either just blocked it out or I've gotten used to them because I can't seem to think of what to do with them now. I love the color you chose for your bedroom. It should feel cozy...like a big hug.

Love all the bunnies in your post and on your new header. You're always the best at changing things up.

Ah Spring the season of renewal, yes there is a definite shift this season, enjoy the revamp of your bedroom! I love your bunnies and colours, it's been a while but good to pop back from time to time to say hello and wish you a beautiful Spring/Easter week-end! xx

Hi Giggles! I want to come play with the bunnies in your header! Yes I have a very strong relationship with color. When it comes to painting my walls I usually do the walls in an off white shade with all the trim painted white gloss. This way I can add all the color I want into the room with paintings, gifts, furniture, comforters, etc. If I didn't do it this way I would be stuck forever in front of the paint swatches and would be changing my mind every other day, lol!!! Big hugz, Rasz

Giggles, it is like you visited my thoughts and now have made a blog post about our visit. I have the same struggles. I finally painted my kitchen with a colour called Silent Film. I have always loved robin' s egg blue and teal, or peacock feather colours, but like you, have found it difficult to find things that are just right in colour to match, so I decided to go with grey. All of my favourite colours look great with it. It took me so many years and a lot of paint samples to decide, but finally one day I walked into the paint store with a favourite new pillow, compared three colours samples and took five minutes yes, FIVE minutes, to find a colour.

As you know, when you change a wall colour, it causes a dominoe effect and your old things don't always look that great, and then you are on a hunt for a long time looking for just the right accessories...

Your people and bunnies are wonderful....the colours and personalities are admirable!

Every time I visit your blog, I feel inspired and connected to you, like a kindred spirit!

I am so glad you figured out what color to paint the walls. As artists we can sit down and paint a picture no problem, but when it comes to the walls of a house it can be daunting. My favorite piece this week is Kelly. She has the coolest legs. You know I enjoy all of your art. She just stuck out this week. Happy Easter weekend to you.

I have a very strong relationship with colors. My favorite is red and I have it in my living room and the kitchen is red & white. My bedroom however is still painters white because the Hubby and I can not come to an agreement on ANY color in there. I want a blueish teal and he says NO WAY! He wants a dull tan and I say NO WAY! So there we go back and forth striving to come to an agreement and after more than 10 years it's still white. LOL! Now the white has passed the just boring stage and has gotten shabby looking and not in the shabby chic way :-/ So this year it really must get painted some color!!!!

What a beautiful bunny! I love the different versions of him. I'm glad you figured out what color you'd like. I like blue a lot, but my walls are off white as I like to hang art and it goes with everything...
